On arrival the key for the room we booked was not available, we contacted the owner and they were quick to respond, after a bit of back and forward on the chat a suitable solution was offered. Several light switches that seemed to do nothing and one set of lights that could not be turned off was a bit inconvenient. Overall the stay was comfortable and the owner helpful

Good and affordable place to stay in a quiet neighborhood at Inverness. It took us a good minute to figure out which room was ours since it's a self-check-in process and the keys to each room were on the doors. Overall great stay.

Overall pleasant experience. Wish there was more signage and the phone number was inaccurate. Still, we were able to check in to our clean hostel without a worker and had a pleasant experience. The bathroom was especially nice.

We were very jet lagged so it was a convenient place to crash for the night. But our room smelled of stale cigaret smoke, we had to sleep with the window open. And the mattresses had buttons in them that made them extra uncomfortable. But the place was clean. And we felt safe.

Muss man mögen...

Ohne große Umschweife: Stand September 2024 war das Hostel (nicht Hotel, darauf wird mehrfach hingewiesen) hoffentlich (!) noch in einer Renovierungsphase, deswegen will ich auf die teils unschönen Details nicht weiter eingehen, von denen der Zustand des Badezimmers und das nicht funktionierede WLAN nur die Spitze des Eisbergs waren. Zu empfehlen maximal für größere Gruppen mit niedrigen Ansprüchen, die sich durch gemeinschaftliches Kochen in der Gemeinschaftsküche etwas Geld sparen wollen.

À éviter si vous le pouvez

Literie horrible. Juste un peu mieux qu’un camping et encore ça se discute… Salle de bain pas terrible C’est juste pas trop cher par rapport au reste des locations possible dans la région mais je dirais que c’était à peine positif pour le rapport qualité prix À éviter si vos finances le permettent

These guys are cheats. Stay away!! We booked accomodation for 2 adults and 2 kids here. However, on our way to hostel, we were told that room we booked is not available and we should find alternative accomodation as we won't fit in 3 kids beds ( only room they have). They asked us to cancel the reservation through Expedia but then did not refund the booking amount.
